Pieter Hugo: Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea

Photographer Pieter Hugo's images in the coffee table book "Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea" are unflinching and unforgettable. Beginning with "Looking Aside," his series of portraits of marginalized people, Hugo has strived to capture the African continent with empathy and impartiality.

Whether confronting the aftermath of genocide in Rwanda, documenting electrical waste dumps in Ghana or photographing in the dynamic Nigerian film industry, Nollywood, Hugo treats his subjects with reverence and awe. This book includes examples of his most recent series, taken in the U.S. and China, and offers beautiful reproductions of Hugo's work in color and black and white, accompanied by personal commentary from the photographer. Bringing together more than a decade of work that has garnered high praise, this coffee table book allows readers to enjoy Pieter Hugo's extraordinary body of work.
